Niagara Falls Canada — Attraction in Niagara Falls

Everyone should be familiar with Niagara Falls, right? This world-famous transnational waterfall is something you never get tired of visiting, because when you stand next to the waterfall, you are really shocked by the amount of water flowing there! 🤩 It is indeed a “must-visit attraction” on the travel lists of major magazines all year round🥰

⏰Niagara Falls is open year-round and 24 hours a day. ⏰

💰About waterfall price🎫: Free. 💰

🖼️About the waterfall: It is composed of two parts, one part is in the United States 🇺🇸 and the other part is in Canada 🇨🇦. (Personally, I think the waterfall from Canada🇨🇦 will be more shocking, because the Canadian side can see the entire Horseshoe Bay Falls panorama, while the American side can only see part of it, so from the perspective of perception, Canada🇨🇦 is better👍 🏻. Pictures 8-9 were taken in the United States 🇺🇸, you can refer to them.)🖼️

🚘About transportation: There are basically Bus🚌 (such as Mega bus, Flix, etc.) or Train🚂 (Go train) to Niagara Falls in major cities in Ontario, or you can also drive by yourself, so everyone chooses the travel method that suits you.

The price is the same. 💰 ⏰The boat trip takes about 20 minutes⏰ ⚠️Notes on the cruise ship: Because the cruise ship is very close to the waterfall, although disposable raincoats will be issued when you get on the ship, the water in the waterfall is really too big, and you will get wet even if you wear a raincoat, so it is recommended that you give your mobile phone 📱/camera 📷 Prepare a waterproof bag. ⚠️

When you choose to visit Niagara Falls there is always the debate…which side do you go to. As an American, why go to the Canadian side of the falls? You go for the panoramic view. Canada hands-down has the best view of the American, Bridal Veil, and Horseshoe Falls.

The vibe on the Canadian side is totally different from the US side. Where the US side is a sprawling park, the Canadian side is totally commercialized. However, I felt their was much more to explore on the Canadian side.

One of the paid tours we did was “Journey Behind the Falls.” Did you know there’s a whole tunnel system you can explore behind and underneath the Horseshoe Falls?

Another item on my bucket list was to eat at the 360 degree revolving restaurant at the top of Skylon Tower. Making one full rotation every 72 minutes, the restaurant at the top is a great place for an aerial view of the falls and surrounding area. However I will warn you, it’s best to reserve your tickets three months in advance. Not interested in eating at the restaurant? You can purchase a separate ticket for just the observation deck and see the same view.

If you have the opportunity, I highly recommend you stay at Niagara until nighttime. The evening experience is something worth seeing. With the rainbow lights on the falls and a fireworks show in the sky, Niagara in the summer at night is kind of like a Disney experience…it’s magical.

My best piece of advice if you go to Niagara Falls during the tourist season, go early in the day! We arrived mid morning in a June and hit some traffic. We also had to wait for about 30 minutes to cross the Rainbow Bridge and pass through border control. By the time we left the falls in the afternoon, traffic was much more congested. So, the earlier you arrive the better. Check the traffic on Google maps before you go to see the best way to enter Canada.

One finally tip, check online for Covid and entrance rules. At the moment, you don’t have to test for Covid to travel between Canada and the US. However, to enter Canada, you have to register your trip prior to arrival on their app called ArriveCAN. (Go to your mobile store to download...

Visiting Niagara Falls is an experience that transcends the ordinary, offering a breathtaking spectacle of nature’s grandeur. The sheer power and beauty of the falls are truly awe-inspiring, leaving an indelible mark on all who witness them.

The falls themselves are a majestic sight, with torrents of water cascading down with a thunderous roar, creating a mist that dances in the sunlight, forming rainbows that add a touch of magic to the scene.

The combination of the American Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and the iconic Horseshoe Falls presents a panorama of natural beauty that is simply unparalleled.

For those planning a visit, here are a few tips to enhance your experience:

Timing is Everything: To avoid the crowds and enjoy a more serene experience, consider visiting early in the morning or later in the evening. The falls are illuminated at night, offering a different, yet equally mesmerizing, perspective.

Dress Appropriately: The mist from the falls can be quite refreshing, but it can also leave you soaked. Waterproof clothing or ponchos are highly recommended, especially if you plan to get up close with attractions like the Maid of the Mist or Journey Behind the Falls.

Explore Both Sides: The Canadian and American sides of the falls each offer unique vantage points and experiences. If possible, take the time to explore both to fully appreciate the grandeur of Niagara Falls.

Capture the Moment: Bring a good camera or smartphone to capture the stunning views. However, don’t forget to take a moment to simply stand in awe and soak in the beauty without the lens.

Local Attractions: Beyond the falls, Niagara offers a variety of attractions including the Butterfly Conservatory, Clifton Hill, and the Niagara Parks Botanical Gardens.

These add to the richness of your visit and provide a well-rounded experience.

In conclusion, Niagara Falls is not just a destination; it’s a journey into the heart of nature’s splendor. The memories you create here will be cherished for a lifetime. Whether you’re seeking adventure, tranquility, or simply a moment of reflection, Niagara Falls offers it all...
